I don't believe in luck.... the problem is either drafting or development, I'm betting on the latter. I really have no idea as a fan though, the whole thing is a black box to me; all I hope for is they pick guys they think can be top line forward, top pairing D as I think depth can always be signed. Jankowski fits that catagory, so I'm optimistic for now and hope it turns out.
